On Sunday, July 28th, the Saratoga Whiskey Club had its second annual Track Tasting.

It really was the perfect afternoon for our club. 24 members were in attendance for this outing!

Here is a list of the whiskies we tasted:

  • Dingle Single Malt Irish Whiskey – Batch 4
  • Barton’s 1792 Full Proof Bourbon – Gordon’s store pick (Waltham, MA)

  • The Macallan Edition #4 Limited Edition
  • The Glenlivet Enigma Limited Edition

A great second year event for the club. We are already looking forward to next year. Cheers!

On Wednesday, December 5, the Saratoga Whiskey Club had its first higher-priced tasting that we named the Luxury Tasting. These were all bottles that we either purchased through auctions or were collected over the last year by the club. There were 16 members in attendance. This was the max number since we only had one bottle of each of the five bottles we tasted.

Here is a list of the whiskies we tasted:

  • Craigellachie 23 Year
  • Distiller’s Art Bunnahabhain 27 Year
  • Bruichladdich Private Single Cask 9 Year Sherry
  • Edradour Single Cask 14 Year
  • Kavalan Solist Vinho Barrique

It was a great first shot at a Luxury tasting and we can’t wait to do this again in 2019!

Cheers!
